Martian impact basin, artwork
Martian impact basin. Computer artwork of a view across the Argyre impact basin in Mars Southern Highlands. About 4 billion years ago an asteroid or comet collided with Mars creating this surface feature. A thousand miles across, Argyre is the second-largest impact basin on Mars after Hellas Planitia. The impacting object that created the basin is believed to have been about 30 miles in diameter. Within the basin are the relatively flat plains of Argyre Planitia

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the Martian impact basin known as Argyre, located in Mars' Southern Highlands. Created through a cataclysmic collision with an asteroid or comet approximately 4 billion years ago, this immense surface feature spans over a thousand miles across. Only surpassed in size by Hellas Planitia, Argyre is the second-largest impact basin on Mars. The computer-generated illustration provides us with a mesmerizing vista of this ancient landscape. The artist's meticulous attention to detail allows us to envision what it might have been like to stand at the edge of Argyre and gaze out across its vast expanse. The relatively flat plains of Argyre Planitia dominate within the basin, creating an otherworldly sight that sparks our curiosity about the planet's geological history. With its intricate portrayal of Martian terrain, this image serves as a testament to humanity's ongoing exploration and understanding of our neighboring planet. It reminds us of the incredible forces at play in our solar system and how they shape celestial bodies like Mars. As we delve deeper into astrogeology and planetary science, images like these fuel our imagination and inspire further research into terrestrial planets beyond Earth. This artwork from Science Photo Library offers not only an aesthetic delight but also serves as a gateway for scientific inquiry into the mysteries hidden within Mars' diverse landscapes.
